Roxane Berard
Roxane Berard (born January 21, 1933), is a Belgian-born actress who was the leading lady in various episodes of thirty-four different American television series between 1958 and 1967. One notable appearance was in 1964 when she played Ninette Rovel who murdered her husband Armand in the Perry Mason episode "The Case of the Fifty Millionth Frenchman." Berard had a gamine quality similar to fellow Belgian Audrey Hepburn's, with whom she was inevitably and continuously compared, especially since they resembled each other rather closely, and frequently worked with a French accent. The television series in which she was the focus of individual episodes included Rawhide (with Clint Eastwood), Colt .45, Maverick (two appearances with James Garner and one apiece with Roger Moore and Jack Kelly, most notably "Game of Chance" with Garner, Kelly, and Marcel Dalio), 77 Sunset Strip, Zorro, The Deputy (with Allen Case), Have Gun - Will Travel (three episodes with Richard Boone), Bronco, Bourbon Street Beat, Surfside Six and Get Smart (source: the Internet Movie Database). Berard is a San Diego-based mural painter. She died peacefully on December 31st, 2019. She loved her garden and her beloved pets who were adopted into happy homes.
